Title: Thoughts.... Powerscourt, (SFTH Tour) a few more pics and those awesome links !
Post by: Maloney on September 05, 2009, 03:42PM
We were so lucky to be able to go and attend both nights.  
We met some great CW fans and shared some special times together. Both at the shows (in line) and at the various local meeting places (pubs).
When the ladies came out the first night, I had tears rolling down my cheek.  A kid on Christmas morning, only more.  It seems they bring out the kid in me.  
To walk up to the venue and hear that they had rehearsed earlier that morning was cool, but when Lisa and Chloë drove by followed by Máiréad then Lynn and Alex.....  was this a dream?  Lisa and Chloë waving as they went by.

(http://i902.photobucket.com/albums/ac221/mountndream/Pictures201-1.jpg) Helen and Amy.

To get something for lunch and eating outside listening to the girls practicing.......  I had to excuse myself to go back and watch.
Standing in the rain waiting ( for  hours?) and hoping the gates would open, listening to the stories of past concerts and all things CW.
Meeting fellow forum members all hoping for the rain to stop and the concert to begin.
The rain.....  
The show......
The new dresses.  Which my wife says are the best yet.  Not as fancy as ANJ or IOH but so pretty.
The new songs......
The drummers......
Lisa having  her makeup redone on stage.....
Someone in production asking where Máiréad was....  
Wondering how the first night was already over.

Spending the next day walking the gardens and hearing the local tourists keep asking "who these wonderful performers were"....

Getting there early the second night and seeing that there was already a line forming.....  Finding our newly made friends in line waiting for us.
The show again..... and the tears flowed even easier the second night.
The power going out and the bugs....
The fun we were having clapping along and the smiles of everyone around us.. (was it cold the second night?) YES !!
The tears at the last song  knowing it was over....
The fireworks...Máiréad coming out and redoing a song....
Wondering how many copies of the DVD we were going to buy when it gets released.

a few more thoughts/memories...
The bagpipe players.
All the amazing lights through out the gardens and the building colors.
Chloë during the power failure saying" I can see you" to the gentleman with the I (heart) Chloë shirt on .
My wife talking to Lisa while I was "busy" taking pictures of the building.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. The experience with the local tourists, I have done too. And yes, it was cold on Thursday late night, to the end of the concert. To start from the recording, the temperature was agreeably. But it was a beautiful, haunting and never to be forgotten concert. :) :) :)

Best Wishes
Udo

Who's that lady on the green dress and what is she doing?

I think Helen is on her cell phone, and Amy might be putting hers away.

Just a word about those "local tourists"....

Some of them were not tourists.
About a dozen members of my family drove over from Tipperary just for the concert,
then drove home, with the kids singing all the way!  :D
If I had not sent them an e-mail the day the taping was announced, they would not have known about it.
Think about it.....the Irish people have not been given a chance to see Celtic Woman.
The PBS concerts at the Helix and Slane Castle were not advertised in Ireland, and nobody had heard of them.
The Irish people in the audience were invited locals, and CW insiders.
The Group was only marketed in the USA.

So now, Ireland wants her daughters back. Just to borrow for a short Tour, maybe....for now.
Until they hang up the big frocks and come home for good.

Of course, they won't be able to get away with the big ticket prices, and M&Gs won't work in Ireland.  
But it would be great publicity.
I don't think they will be able to grab the rest of Europe without some credibility at home.
The children who were there are budding musicians and singers, taking lessons from very good teachers,
and of course learning Irish music and dance in school.
They are telling all their friends about CW and how wonderful the taping was.
They have not stopped singing and playing the songs since Powerscourt.
They are driving their mothers insane! I know this because they tell me about the screeching high notes
coming from the kids' rooms.
The kids have copies of the Greatest Journey DVD which they are using "Karaoke" style,
singing and playing their instruments while watching.
They couldn't buy those DVDs in Ireland, I ordered them from Rego Records.

I don't want to see the little ones disappointed.......I hope CW will do a Tour of Ireland soon,
with a lot of advance publicity.....now that there is growing interest in Celtic Woman at home in Ireland.
And do it before they become the "old ladies of Celtic Woman"....
....Lisa with blue-rinse hair, Máiréad scooting all over the stage on a walker....

"I am the Voice..."
 "Where did I put me fiddle?"

This brings all the great memories back again!  Thank you so much!  

If you had told me 5 years ago that I would travel to Ireland and stand in a line for 2 1/2 hours, two nights in a row (!), and race madly for the best seat I could get... well, I would have considered it a malicious fantasy!  Not worthy of response or even comment!  But I did and I loved every single minute of it.   What's really weird is that the lines were actually quite enjoyable with all the fellow fans and all the CW chat and camaraderie with people from all over the world.  Like Richard said, my kids can't believe that I've become a musical groupie at my age!

Oh, and the bugs!  I had already blocked out the bugs!

The bagpipe players on the roof of the house was a very nice surprise during the show. The light composition was beautiful, exspecially the few flashlights during the power failure's on Thursday night. :D :D :D

Jody, that was one of the most charming moments of the event!  I loved Chloe's reaction when she saw him - pointing and saying "I see you!" (I think that's what she said) and Lisa saying something like 'I see that you still haven't washed that t-shirt yet!' which got a nice big laugh.  You all were one row in front of us as Maloney said.  And your hubby had a nice chat with Mrs. Sidepocket and sister in the line on Wed. night.

Mrs. Sidepocket insists that Chloe blew him a kiss at the end.   As we were filing out she told your hubby:  'That was for you!"

The hubbie (Nick) thinks every kiss Chloe blows to the audience is for him!!! Please don't encourage him!!  ;)  On more than one occasion he has made poor Chloe giggle on stage because he gestures like he is catching the kiss!!!......SO EMBARRASING!!!!  LOL!!!!

  My mom was visiting from out of state the past two days...... of course we spent one evening looking at the pictures from the trip.   And the following night watching the DvDs.  I don't think she realized how big Celtic Woman has become.... at least with me !!.   I hope that the spring tour includes the Seatle area,  as well as the San Francisco market.  It would be great to go visit her and take her to the show!

Wow, kind of reminds me of my mother for some reason. ^_^
My mother is a "closet fan."  She used to go off on me at how much she hates them and their voices and she would constantly ask why I listened to them so much.  I basically sat her down one day and asked why not watch the DVD with me and THEN come up with an opinion; she reluctantly agreed.  So we watched the DVD (my aunt was there too) and by the time we finished watching it (especially after You Raise Me Up), both of them were in tears.  We basically spent the next two hours going over what songs they liked best and which of the ladies had the best voice and such.  Even now, she acts like she doesn't care for them, but it's obvious she likes them.  Just a small example: every time we take a long car trip, she asks for the CDs and puts them on. :D

If Celtic Woman returns to the Bryce Jordan Center for their spring tour, I'm definately taking her along. :)

Random questions: In this picture below
(http://i902.photobucket.com/albums/ac221/mountndream/Pictures202.jpg)
Are Chloe and Lisa in the golf cart that has already passed Helen and Amy? Is that Mairead in the cart by Helen and Amy?



CHANGES:
The arrow that pointed to the picture below was apparently canceled.  So the only picture that really matters still remains.

LOL
  My mom was visiting from out of state the past two days...... of course we spent one evening looking at the pictures from the trip.   And the following night watching the DvDs.  I don't think she realized how big Celtic Woman has become.... at least with me !!.   I hope that the spring tour includes the Seatle area,  as well as the San Francisco market.  It would be great to go visit her and take her to the show!

We committed to four tickets (and two DvDs) in May for Seattle.  We are flying up from San Francisco area and taking her to one of the concerts.  We want her to see what we went to Ireland to see. =)

I finally got to see the Show on PBS. I was able to DVR the show from PBS in San Francisco.  It was so cool to really be able to see and hear the show. The local PBS station had bad sound quality that night and the satelite signal was lost ... so it wasn't able to record.

Now I can watch it  over and over and over......  LOL and not wear out the DvD when it arrives. And I really got to see my wife in the audience.... a few times

I agree with you a few days is not enough as I learned from my first visit 3 years ago for the ACC 2 nights of filming. I did visit Powerscourts before I left. S

This brings all the great memories back again!  Thank you so much!  

If you had told me 5 years ago that I would travel to Ireland and stand in a line for 2 1/2 hours, two nights in a row (!), and race madly for the best seat I could get... well, I would have considered it a malicious fantasy!  Not worthy of response or even comment!  But I did and I loved every single minute of it.   What's really weird is that the lines were actually quite enjoyable with all the fellow fans and all the CW chat and camaraderie with people from all over the world.  Like Richard said, my kids can't believe that I've become a musical groupie at my age!

Oh, and the bugs!  I had already blocked out the bugs!

It is hard to believe that it has been over a year now.  Everytime I watch the Dvd all of the memories flood back.  Each time the camera angle changes I think first night/ second night....
A special time .... =)

I signed up for the CW newsletter at their website, and about two months before they filmed SFTH I got the newsletter announcing the filming. The newsletter said if anyone wanted to attend, to send them an email submitting the request. I wasn't able to go, so I wouldn't know anything beyond that.

I was there on the first night and I will never ever forget the start of the evening, Mairead was waiting on the front of the stage with the fiddle in her arm and waiting, waiting, waiting for THE CALL -  till the Starting point was given from the Filming-Team, it was so silent all these minutes, the cameras moved over our heads - an incredible and unforgettable moment for me and naturally all the moments with Lisa's mic problems, tears in her eyes, the rain, the fullstop in YOU RAISE ME UP, the fireworks and the bagpip-player on the roof of the Powerscourt-House Building....Lynn waiting on the stage and chatting with us.....
I loved the moment as the whole audience was singing - SINGING AND DANCING IN THE RAIN - between the rain-break.....all these moments are so special for me and to know I'm on the DVD that's absolutely a fantastic thing.....and not to forget - Nil sen la after the break - the choir was waiting on the side of the stage and dances around - they were so closed to us.....that was funny and familiary
that was a rare chance for us european-fans and it will be always in my memories  ;)

all the moments with Lisa's mic problems, tears in her eyes, the rain, the fullstop in YOU RAISE ME UP
Why did she have tears in her eyes?? And what happened in YRMU??

well - I think it was the wind and it was very very cold that night, the rain stopped short before the eve started.....
the stop in YRMU - Lisa said thank you to the audience - in the middle of the last refrain, you can see it at the DVD - nobody expected that.....and we were all very surprised and speechless.....

I think it was the wind that made her tear up too, because her voice didn't sound different, and if she had started to cry, then it would've sounded different. As far as I know, she thanks the audience in most shows during the end of YRMU. From what people have said. SO SWEET!!!!!!!

The first night was breezy when Lisa was singing Fields of Gold, causing her eyes to water.  I really don't think she was crying.  BUT it was neat to see her stop and have her makeup retouched....

I was able to enjoy the Powerscourt concert only from my living room.  Will probably never get to travel to Ireland.  But I have been able to see Celtic Woman here in the U.S. eight times.  So I am blessed.  Thanks for the thoughts and the pictures.

This brings all the great memories back again!  Thank you so much!  

If you had told me 5 years ago that I would travel to Ireland and stand in a line for 2 1/2 hours, two nights in a row (!), and race madly for the best seat I could get... well, I would have considered it a malicious fantasy!  Not worthy of response or even comment!  But I did and I loved every single minute of it.   What's really weird is that the lines were actually quite enjoyable with all the fellow fans and all the CW chat and camaraderie with people from all over the world.  Like Richard said, my kids can't believe that I've become a musical groupie at my age!

Oh, and the bugs!  I had already blocked out the bugs!



haha..wouldn't I wish to have known sooner!

  I think I'll pull out my  Powers Court DVD as soon as I get home.  Reading these posts has planted that desire within me. I keep this DVD in my rotation(as well as the others) because I enjoy the variety.  ;)

I'm almost sure that she will sing My Lagan Love and Dulaman because it was written on a set list that a fan has seen on the floor near of the stage.

went here on my trip!  Can definitely see why they choose this spot to do the taping!  It was absolutely breathtaking! And we did the whole hour walk tour around the grounds and one area was more beautiful than the next! We even got sandwiched from the building and ate it in a little gazebo in the Chinese garden there, and the surroundings were just magical! Then staring from the pond straight to the building was just an amazing experience! And even closer to the building, which is the part the girls used in the taping, was just breathtaking! And definitely could see why again, they used that location! I definitely could picture the how the night went that evening especially from the girls point of view! From walking out the doors, to looking out to the crowd and scenery and yes I slightly had to pretend I was dancing and sing the girls songs a little bit!  But you can tell there was some sort of amazing energy from that building and surroundings!

there are a few 'reaction" You Tube videos from this concert on that medium.  Seems that the word is spreading among non-CW fanatics as well. :)
